2 of those games are older than me come on

stiff yarrow
#

Nintendo charges so much for games

spiral zinc
#

i’ve been t500 for the past few seasons, there’s hardly ever in the higher ranks because people usually just mass report cheaters while they’re in diamond or etc

#

and they get banned before they can climb any higher

mighty storm
#

didnt sunshine come out in 2002?

stiff yarrow
#

Shit the joycon is 80 effing dollars

spiral zinc
#

people intentionally throw games to stop them

humble falcon
#

2001 i think

green turret
#

Unix please take it seriously if you get any pain. I wouldn't wish this upon my worst enemy. Except my upstairs neighbor. Fuck him.

wide chasm
#

It's GC, so probably somewhere there

humble falcon
#

either way old enough to drink

wide chasm
#

Joy-Cons are extremely expensive, it's absurd

spiral zinc
#

when i smurf(ed) in diamond there was literally a cheater every other game

quasi valley
#

mule, if your upstairs neighbour ever moves out, please tell us

wide chasm
#

I mean, I'm used to the game price by now, but those Joy-Cons

spiral zinc
#

whether it was subliminal or rage hacking

mighty storm
#

how ru younger than 18 but older than 21

#

tf

quasi valley
#

so we can celebrate with you

humble falcon
#

I bought a switch last month and youtube's like "100 reasons why nintendo sucks"

upper stump
#

stop smurfing dammit

stiff yarrow
#

Buying a switch game is always like : *oof there goes 60 usd on literally any title *

green turret
#

If he moves out I will live stream it

humble falcon
#

Imagine living in a country where you have to be 21 to drink

mighty storm
#

usually it's like $10 cheaper in stores

quasi valley
#

lol

upper stump
#

@humble falcon in public*

quasi valley
#

it's like dollar 10 cheaper

wide chasm
#

Only game I got for less is Celeste, which was 6 euro or something on sale. Normally 20.

mighty storm
#

like i got odyssey for $50 by going to target

#

ohh celeste is fun but it's too hard

wide chasm
#

I've got 182 berries 🙂

humble falcon
#

if i tried to buy odyssey in an actual store i'd get it MUCH more expensive

stiff yarrow
#

My joycon got drift and it was fucking 80 dollars to replace 🧂

#

With that said switch is great

spiral zinc
#

I think odyssey might have been the only game I completed on switch

mighty storm
#

my joycons dont even detach 😎

humble falcon
#

I paid 630$ for my switch because it was the least expensive option

spiral zinc
#

I hate framerate locks but especially on such a small screen

mighty storm
#

$630*

wide chasm
#

You can replace the stick for relatively cheap though

quasi valley
#

dollar 630

spiral zinc
#

cause I’ve only ever owned the undockable versions

mighty storm
#

ikr, thats why i fixed it

quasi valley
#

no, now it is

mighty storm
#

yes, now i fixed it

#

thank u :3

#

fitness service? for apple watch? wut

wide chasm
#

Also, the screws they used in the Joy-Cons are of such a low quality, these things strip on the lightest touch I swear

humble falcon
#

lite version sucks i'd rather put more money on top of that price and buy a PS4 pro

stiff yarrow
#

I’m not about to do my own repairs when I can just go to target and get a new one without having to do a bunch of nerd stuff

quasi valley
#

I'll just always use $ instead of € but keep writing it after the number lol

stiff yarrow
quasi valley
#

just to mess with you chew >:)

wide chasm
#

I mean, if you want to spend 80 dollars on replacing it vs, 15 dollars or so fixing it

humble falcon
#

i could put like 100$ on top of the price i paid for switch, and get a ps4 pro bundle with 5 games

spiral zinc
#

pls give us gow2 teaser tomorrow

#

anyone with me

quasi valley
#

or no I won't, as long as you don't use the forbidden word at least

mighty storm
#

I mean it's $100 and 100€ in the same way it's $1.00 and 0,10€

upper stump
humble falcon
#

omfg yes gow2 teaser i ccan't play it but i want it anyway

upper stump
#

thats.... new...

stiff yarrow
#

Spending 80 doesn’t hurt anything but my principals

mighty storm
#

i would never

stiff yarrow
#

I’m just salty Nintendo would charge that

humble falcon
#

i played up to GOW:A i still have my PS3

wide chasm
#

Same

#

I haven't needed to replace any yet though, so I'm holding out hope I got a magic model that will work until the end of time

stiff yarrow
#

I thought I dodged joycon drift but 220 hours of dragon quest 11 did it in

humble falcon
#

my ps3 controller broke so i got some ps4 controllers cuz they were advertised as backwards comptabile

wide chasm
#

Oof

mighty storm
#

damn the fitness thing looks good, i dont need it i need the opposite of fitness

humble falcon
#

little did i know it was the shittiest BC to date

wide chasm
#

Hopefully Dragon Quest XI is worth the new Joy-Con though 🙂

stiff yarrow
#

Dq11 was godly

humble falcon
#

honestly if my joycon goes broke i'll literally just use joycontrol and a PS4 controller

stiff yarrow
#

I did all the optional shit even the super bosses

wide chasm
#

By the 220 hours I'm guessing it has way too much optional stuff? 🙂

humble falcon
#

I already have joycontrol set up for totally legit reasons and it's in python so

slim nymph
#

well ill prob be wfh permanently now lol. office is moving into a smaller office next year and moving to a rotational setup. sharing desk would just be weird, but im 30-40 mins away from office....

stiff yarrow
#

I think I cleared act 3 around 110 hours in and act 3 is considered a post game

#

The super bosses added another 100 hours

slim nymph
#

unless they just give devs dedicated desks

stiff yarrow
#

That’s how I remember it I could be remembering wrong

slim nymph
#

since our setups are different

mighty storm
#

your setups are just built different

wide chasm
#

That's quite long, although I'm guessing you 100%-ed it now?

waxen panther
#

DQ11 is amazing

humble falcon
#

i never heard of dq

stiff yarrow
#

I basically 99%’d it there’s a few optional quests I skipped that are literally not worth doing and would take me all of 10 minutes

waxen panther
#

I 100%'d the base game in 14 hours, still haven't finished the switch verison yet thogh

wide chasm
#

Ah I see.

mighty storm
#

so why not do them? wouldnt it feel nice to get that cool 100%

magic river
#

TSMC has officially passed Intel, Apple is shipping 5nm chips now

waxen panther
#

only bought the switch version so i could marry someone other than the boring firstr came

wide chasm
#

Have you 100%-ed BotW, though?

mighty storm
#

oh, sorry, %100, kneny

humble falcon
#

5nm chips? In what?

#

new macbook pros i suppose?

waxen panther
#

ipad

magic river
#

TSMC 7nm ~= Intel 10nm so they were kind of tied before (although TSMC seems to have a more capable/mature node)

stiff yarrow
#

Nah I got bored of botw after 2 dungeons but that’s probably because I was ocd and exploring every corner of the map

magic river
#

iPad Air

stiff yarrow
#

But it’s an amazing game

magic river
#

MBP or MBA is coming later this year still, supposedly

wide chasm
#

Which dungeons have you done?

humble falcon
#

only switch game i have is super mario odyssey because e-shop doesn't do regional pricing

mighty storm
#

what is ~=

stiff yarrow
#

The water one and one other one

waxen panther
#

roughly equal

wide chasm
#

If you haven't done the Gerudo one, that one is way better than the others imo

stiff yarrow
#

It’s been like a year since I played it

humble falcon
#

and few free ones obviously

mighty storm
#

ohh

humble falcon
#

i was gonna buy rocket league but today they announced it was gonna be free lmao

mighty storm
#

like how =/= is ≠

next wind
#

i was gonna buy rocket league but today they announced it was free lmao
@humble falcon woah really? nice

cedar spade
#

They announced that months back but sure

stiff yarrow
#

Botw 2 soon pls

humble falcon
#

wait what

waxen panther
#

it's BotW 0 😉

wide chasm
#

Oh god please

magic river
#

Yeah it's supposed to be ≈ but forget figuring out how to type that every time

trim depot
#

hey!

stiff yarrow
#

Wasn’t botw 0 just some dynasty warriors spin off

wide chasm
#

They did recently say that development is still going good or something, so that's nice

trim depot
wide chasm
#

Hyrule Warriors, yeah

stiff yarrow
#

Not interested tbh

magic river
#

botw 0 is a DLC to a dynasty warriors reskin

cedar spade
#

Also PC version is moving to Epic so fuck anyone who uses macOS/Linux and didn't buy it on Steam before it was pulled I guess

humble falcon
#

idc about zelda gimme SMO2

wide chasm
#

It looks better than the previous one at least

stiff yarrow
#

Dynasty warrior games are not my thing

humble falcon
#

they announced 2 big zelda games but no mario

wide chasm
#

I mean SMO > BotW

#

3D All-Stars?

mighty storm
#

sad it doesnt have smg2

magic river
#

Dynasty Warriors games can be fun for brief periods, you basically start in god mode and just mow things down

humble falcon
#

overpriced worse than homebrew emulation

stiff yarrow
#

My next game to beat is gonna be persona 5 festival golden royal whatever they named it, I love me some persona

slim nymph
#

@cedar spade what moved to epic? rocket league?

mighty storm
#

Rory is in the closet again

cedar spade
#

3D All-Stars?
stefvanschie: hahaha what a funny joke oh wait Nintendo already has my money

magic river
#

Rocket League is owned by Epic, no?

slim nymph
#

i just started Witcher 3, im liking it so far

cedar spade
#

@slim nymph yes

wide chasm
#

Currently going through Fire Emblem: Three Houses

stiff yarrow
#

Witcher 3 is amazing

magic river
#

Also I've got 3D All-Stars on preorder

humble falcon
#

It being limited time sucks

wide chasm
#

Forty hours in still at Part 1 🙂

stiff yarrow
#

Say goodbye to 1-3 months of your life aikar

slim nymph
#

i feel like its gonna spoil season 2 for me 😛

wide chasm
#

Limited time is stupid

humble falcon
#

they might release each for 20 tho

cedar spade
#

Amaranth: since June last year, yes

magic river
#

Witcher games have nothing to do with the books

stiff yarrow
#

Witcher 3 is not book canon so it’s not really related to the show, with that said the show isn’t super true to the books either

void void
#

TSMC 7nm ~= Intel 10nm so they were kind of tied before (although TSMC seems to have a more capable/mature node)
@magic river I thought I remembered seeing some analysis that intel 10 and tsmc 7 weren't all that well tied

magic river
#

They're kind of set after the books but do a lot of weird things

slim nymph
#

@stiff yarrow im not a "100%er", i just wanna do story and side missions as it goes, but dont go out for EVERYTHING

void void
#

and tsmc 7 was still a fair bit ahead of intel 10 at least for overall density

wide chasm
#

looks at 270 hours in BotW

cedar spade
#

They scrapped the native macOS/Linux Steam versions right after the acquisition but it still works under Proton afaik

humble falcon
#

should i get botw

slim nymph
#

i just finished RDR2 got prob 80%?

magic river
#

Density of SRAM isn't a good measure but TSMC did seem to have a decent advantage there

stiff yarrow
#

I was a 100%er for everything except getting all the treasures in skellige

#

I’m playing rdr2 now

#

It’s great

wide chasm
#

BotW is good, would recommend sbeve

slim nymph
#

yeah such a great game, i wanna do rdr1 now

humble falcon
#

don't have anything i can play rdr2 reeeeeeee

magic river
#

I couldn't bring myself to finish RDR2

humble falcon
#

k ty stefvan

slim nymph
#

O.o why?

cedar spade
#

also, "wait you guys play games? I only just played GTA V"

magic river
#

It's just the same story told 5 times in different settings

wide chasm
#

I still do 100%, only Switch game I've failed that for currently is Celeste.

stiff yarrow
#

Rdr1 wasn’t as good, I don’t really remember it much

slim nymph
#

eh not really at all

stiff yarrow
#

Rdr2 is on another level

wide chasm
#

But I've poured 160 hours into Celeste, good enough for me

humble falcon
#

I finished watch dogs 15 fps with 800x600 resolution and nvidia's like the new 3090

magic river
#

And running around hunting and robbing supply wagons isn't fun

stiff yarrow
#

Shut your mouth

slim nymph
#

you dont really gotta do that outside missions lol

stiff yarrow
#

Hunting is so relaxing

humble falcon
#

mmm i'm sniffing a circlejerk

stiff yarrow
#

It’s my favorite pass time

spiral zinc
#

I finished watch dogs 15 fps with 800x600 resolution and nvidia's like the new 3090
@humble falcon nvidia cards are launching soon, it'll be ok

#

and if the prices don't look good enough for you, AMD is at least announcing something new v soon

magic river
#

No but the missions are a loop of the same shit happening over and over and I want my character to just fucking murder half the camp and GTFO

humble falcon
#

rip 2080ti owners tho

spiral zinc
#

like Oct 8

#

so by then card prices should drop even more

humble falcon
#

bro best hardware i have is a macbook air

slim nymph
#

treasure maps the best way to get money but i didnt even do them

stiff yarrow
#

That’s kind of true of rockstar games tho, I play it for story and atmosphere

humble falcon
#

it doesn't even support eGPU

magic river
#

So I just stopped playing because the missions were frustrating and the side content is tedious

slim nymph
#

i had enough from 1 of the missions rewards

stiff yarrow
#

I am an honorable cowboy who releases fish after catching them and pets dogs

wide chasm
#

lol

stiff yarrow
#

😊

slim nymph
#

lol, i may of petted a lot of dogs and said hello to a ton of people to "make up" for murdering lots of people and doing bad things.....

magic river
#

BOTW is basically my perfect game that isn't a 2D platformer 😛

slim nymph
#

it was like "shit sorry didnt mean to kill and loot you innocent man, let me go say hello 10 times as payment"

stiff yarrow
#

Yeah same

wide chasm
#

I still prefer MM over BotW

#

But BotW is also good

stiff yarrow
#

I accidentally fired my gun a lot early game getting used to the controls

slim nymph
#

i ended game with perfect honor with a very uh shady start

humble falcon
#

MM?

wide chasm
#

Majora's Mask

magic river
#

Open world games usually get tedious and I just start slamming out the missions to get them over with but I couldn't do that with RDR2 because the missions made me hate it more

stiff yarrow
#

When I found out you can shoot guns out of peoples hands I was like pog

slim nymph
#

you really feel the "redemption" part in RDr2

magic river
#

BOTW never really got tedious, I always wanted to explore more

humble falcon
#

nakeyjakey's rdr2 video is pretty good

#

i mean the outdated design one

wide chasm
#

It only got tedious for me when I wanted to get all 900 korok seeds

stiff yarrow
#

Sounds like you forced yourself to play a game you didn’t like, I was in love with rdr2 atmosphere once you get out of that stupid fucking snow tutorial

next wind
#

i just watched that like yesterday

#

it was so good

wide chasm
#

Cause my god, that's a lot of korok seeds

magic river
#

Ok, yeah, fuck the korok seeds

wide chasm
#

Thank you

stiff yarrow
#

I personally find rdr2 hella relaxing

magic river
#

You only need like 300 to max out your inventory, after that it's just for a golden poo and OCD

stiff yarrow
#

I just walk through towns slowly doing random stuff in between missions

#

Hunting deer and shit

wide chasm
#

Even those 300 are way too many imo

magic river
#

I did them as I came across them which was a lot of them due to wanting to explore

slim nymph
#

yeah i kinda wanna play online to do the hunting stuff

magic river
#

But I didn't try to find them, really

wide chasm
#

I only tried to find them when I did everything else.

slim nymph
#

online isnt great but least there it feels more of a reward for progression

stiff yarrow
#

I got like 100 something seeds thinking I was doing well then someone in here told me there were 900 and I was like how the fuck did I miss 800

wide chasm
#

Actually I didn't do everything else, cause apparently getting all map locations on your map counts towards 100% and then I mean every small piece of text.

magic river
#

I thought online was going to save the game for me then I got on there and realized online is just the tedious open world bits but with other people

stiff yarrow
#

I don’t really like online games outside of competitive ladder climbing stuff

magic river
#

GTAO works because driving around the city causing mayhem is fun and doing it with other people is even better

wide chasm
#

Got ~270 normally, everything else was with a guide.

slim nymph
#

the end of rdr2 is great (not gonna say any spoilers) but its hard to play the sP anymore than that, rather just do MP and do stuff with others

humble falcon
#

just don't play on PC and GTAO is actually pretty good

slim nymph
#

plus seems like MP has some additional story to it

stiff yarrow
#

I’m probably going to replay rdr2 on ps5

potent fossil
#

whats wrong with gtao on pc

magic river
#

Most of my GTAO is doing race playlists with people though, not even cruising the city

#

Cheaters

slim nymph
#

my nephew replayed it for my mom, shes watching him as it was a movie

potent fossil
#

i mean im there to fuck shit up anyway ¯_(ツ)_/¯

slim nymph
#

they really should make an rdr2 movie, this would fit perfectly as a movie

humble falcon
#

it not only takes 99999 to just load into the open world, it's filled with hackers and don't even get me started on getting into a deathmatch lol

slim nymph
#

let the non gamers experience it

humble falcon
#

on my ps3 it's still silky smooth

wide chasm
#

If they actually know what they're doing with the movie, otherwise you get another 3/10 movie 🙂

humble falcon
#

and (mostly) no hackers cuz ( mostly ) no children are playing on it

magic river
#

Yeah but assholes will do things like headshot every player on an instance at once or put your character in some weird state that requires you to leave and rejoin or you can't enter/get out of cars

humble falcon
#

also imagine still doing p2p in 2020

slim nymph
#

damnit RDR2 Special Edition isnt on sale anymore

humble falcon
#

looks intensely at rockstar and nintendo

potent fossil
#

i make friends with most of the assholes and then i play in relative peace

wide chasm
#

Just don't play online with Nintendo games

slim nymph
#

im glad i played it without special editon. didnt need those boosts to make game easier.

potent fossil
#

survival of the fittest

humble falcon
#

just don't buy NSO... ever

wide chasm
#

Yeah basically

#

That shit isn't worth the price, even though it's pretty low.

magic river
#

NSO?

wide chasm
#

Nintendo Switch Online

magic river
#

Oh, I bought that before it even came out 😛

humble falcon
#

Honestly if i see a feature that's NSO only, i just assume it doesn't exist.

Splatton 2 let's see. Oh it's singleplayer only ok

wide chasm
#

Yeah same

magic river
#

I don't even use it

#

Like twice a year I'll play some of the virtual console games it gets you

wide chasm
#

Having to pay to be able to play online is bullshit anyway imo and the connectivity isn't even good, so whatever.

magic river
#

I don't play online

humble falcon
#

that mario battle royale they copied from that web game is NSO only -_-

#

and STILL P2P

magic river
#

iirc I thought I was going to be doing smash online

humble falcon
#

I heard that smash got it's own servers eventually but i'm not sure

wide chasm
#

Servers? On a Nintendo game? Unbelievable.

slim nymph
#

theres rumors ms is going to go away with paying for xbox online

next wind
#

yeah that would be so nice

wide chasm
#

That'd be great

#

Not that I have an Xbox, but still

slim nymph
#

they just bumped GamePass for PC from 5 to 10/mo, which is interesting, because onXbox GP ultimate is 5 for GP and 10 for online play.

magic river
#

Yeah instead you're going to pay for Game Pass Ultimate and that's the only way to get online 😛

humble falcon
#

nevermind it was false smash doesn't have servers

#

and people on reddit are like "that's worse!" lmao

#

game pass is actually a good deal

magic river
#

For a fighting game if you're doing 1v1 I think a server would make it worse

humble falcon
#

I have Apple Arcade and i love it

slim nymph
#

unless they move online play to 5/mo and GP is 10/mo for xbox

mighty storm
#

is it bad if i cant remember the last time i had breakfast

wide chasm
#

Well either you don't eat breakfast often or your memory is really bad

#

So I'd say yes

mighty storm
#

And are either of those bad?

#

lol

humble falcon
#

or it was just the same breakfast so you didn't really care

#

try a new food you've never tried before you'll def remember it then

worn ember
#

well according to google you'll be dead in 72 hours chew

wide chasm
#

lol

slim nymph
#

i havent been eating breakfast lately. keto and IF to a degree, just no apetite to over eat

humble falcon

My breakfast is either powdered donuts or a pop tart

humble falcon

i'm never hungry for breakfast

so i just wait for lunch

wide chasm
#

Powdered donuts as breakfast?

slim nymph
#

so im getting a good 10-14 hours of intermittent fasting lately

mighty storm
#

kill me google chan pleading_apple

next wind
#

how tf do you do that

mighty storm
#

my meals today will be: goldfish (flavor blasted), tacos

slim nymph
#

me? im not hungry lol

short yarrow
#

in the case where you have two different exceptions thrown within a line of each other and are in the same scope, would it be better to have separate try-catch blocks so you can have write a more specific error message instead of a general one?

worn ember
#

goldfish? wtf

#

dont eat your pets you savage

mighty storm
#

who said theyre my pets

humble falcon
#

do you have uwuifier in this server

wide chasm
#

Imo yes Hydraxus

worn ember
#

dont eat pets you savage

mighty storm
#

who said they're pets

magic river
#

Today I'm having homemade lasagna

wide chasm
#

Or do you mean two entirely separate try/catch blocks?

magic river
#

Going to visit my grandparents

worn ember
#

goldfish are pets, end of story

wide chasm
#

You can just add a new catch clause to an already existing one

mighty storm
#

the snack that smiles back ™️

slim nymph
#

ate like 16z of steak for dinner the other night. double baconator w/ no bun and a half size avocado salad last night. bratwurst and eggs for lunch today

you missed an o

.wa 16 oz to metric

limber knotBOT

(DiscordBot) No results.

slim nymph

.wa 16 oz to grams

wide chasm
#

Oh is it oz?

limber knotBOT
mighty storm
#

yes

wide chasm
#

Holy shit that's a lot

slim nymph
#

oh i missed the o lol

magic river
#

I suspect the equivalent cut in metric world would just be 500 grams

slim nymph
#

but thats all i pretty much had that day and didnt eat until 7pm last night

short yarrow
#

Ahh @wide chasm I'll just add another catch block. I forgot that even existed. Thanks!

wide chasm
#

I mean, if I eat out I don't even go over 200g of meat and for normal dinner I eat less than that.

short yarrow
#

I usually just do Exception1 | Exception2

wide chasm
#

And I doubt lunch and breakfast would combine to another 200g

magic river
#

You can't do that in kotlin 😦

mighty storm
#

"up to 6x time faster than top-selling chromebook" well yeha, my left toe is faster than that trash 😂

magic river
#

Top voted feature request for kotlin is multi-catch block

void void
#

yep

next wind
#

chromebooks are nice for just general use though

void void
#

Holy shit that's a lot
no wtf

magic river
#

iPad Air is also 2x faster than the fastest MBP

next wind
#

and they last for a really long time too

void void
#

it's the d r e a m

mighty storm
#

chromebook is all fun and games until you dont have internet

magic river
#

Because they said it's 2x faster than the fastest Windows laptop which is the same or faster than the fastest MBP

Because they said it's 2x faster than the fastest Windows laptop which is the same or faster than the fastest MBP
@magic river lmfao what a lie

slim nymph
#

note thats around 1300 calories. considering that plus a shake is all i had for the day, I ate very little that day calorie wise

void void
#

wat

mighty storm
#

I mean, considering how bloated windows is, i wouldnt be suprised

magic river
#

Windows bloat has nothing or almost nothing to do with compute benchmarks

mighty storm
#

theyre completely different operating systems

magic river

specint is specint

mighty storm
#

oh hell yeah, finally, scribble

magic river
#

My XPS 9300 is within a rounding error of 2020 13" MBP performance

mighty storm

what is MBP

twin lagoon
#

xps pogU

mighty storm
#

most baluable product?

humble falcon
#

I mean the performance does differ but not 2x

magic river

I can't remember which one is faster but they're almost within the standard deviation for the benchmarks

#

MBP is MacBook Pro

ive never owned/used a windows computer i woudl call "fast" and "smooth"

humble falcon
#

"arbitrary score that doesn't mean anything but just compare it anyway"

#

I installed windows on my mac and it was smooth enough

magic river
#

That's probably because you buy cheap windows computers 😛

humble falcon
#

i mean as smooth as you can get on a USB 2.0 external HDD

#

@mighty storm wut os do u use? linucks?

magic river
#

Spent $1500 on one and see what you get

mighty storm
#

i dont buy windows computers, im not dumb

magic river
#

Although I did put Ubuntu 20.10 on here

humble falcon
#

imagine buying windows just to change your background

mighty storm
#

20.10 is out?

magic river
#

No

amaranth is in the secret club

magic river

i spent $1900 and that's with a discount

potent fossil
#

amaranth aren't you an (ex?) ubuntu dev?

magic river
#

Hi, I'm an Ubuntu Member, Ubuntu IRC Op, and former Ubuntu Developer 😛

#

What else would I use?

potent fossil
#

ah yes

mighty storm
#

lol

twin lagoon
#

snapd pepegahammer

magic river
#

I uninstalled snapd

twin lagoon
#

ok you're good in my books

mighty storm
#

Ubuntu IRC Op
@serene bolt found a role farmer

slim nymph
#

my distro doesnt come with snapd 😛

spiral zinc
#

Density of SRAM isn't a good measure but TSMC did seem to have a decent advantage there
@magic river also, it was supposed to be tied but Intel had to scale back 10nm to not be as ambitious

magic river
#

I was an IRC Op before anything else, iirc I only finally went through getting approved for member because they made it required for ops

mighty storm
#

my vps doesnt support snapd sexymexican

spiral zinc
#

and while they got decent density it kinda sucks in most other ways

slim nymph
#

mint is pretty much my personal desires of a tweaked ubuntu.

twin lagoon
#

the only thing ubuntu does right is ubuntu livepatach

#

that is a great feature

spiral zinc
#

I've heard that they are having trouble with their 7nm process, and I expect that that's why their GPU (IIRC) is going to be done on Samsung's 8nm process

slim nymph
#

its still effectively ubuntu, just a good UX built around cinnamon

magic river
#

Pretty sure they were doing their GPU on TSMC 7nm

mighty storm
#

wasnt there some ubuntu tablet coming out, what happened to that

twin lagoon
#

ubuntu touch

#

classic

magic river
#

iirc part of it was Intel 14nm, part was Intel 10nm, and part was TSMC 7nm with their EMIC tech to glue it all together

#

Ubuntu Touch was for phones

spiral zinc
#

i don't really remember or care, i only looked at their marketing materials that....one time

#

i thought it said samsung 8nm

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

mighty storm
#

@magic river #ubuntu on freenode right

#

i might be on there

magic river
#

Although if their 10nm SuperFin clocks as high as they say I wonder why they'd need TSMC

mighty storm
#

nop

magic river
#

Unless their yields are still shitty enough that large dies are a bad idea

mighty storm
#

oh! I was on there up until Wednesday, August 21st, 2019

spiral zinc
#

the only reason I could think of is

dim shadow
#

bruhhh my bday was the next day

spiral zinc
#

production capacity or their own manufacturing capability

#

dunno though, like I said I keep hearing their 7nm process is riddled with problems

magic river
#

That could be, they had to move some things back to 14nm just because they didn't have enough 10nm capacity

mighty storm
#

Paper for iPadOS when

magic river
#

iirc they even ended up moving some things back to 22nm because 14nm overflowed too due to that

#

Like their modems

#

Cool Apple is finally getting rid of lightning

mighty storm
#

ohh damn amaranth, you got the fancy hostmask]

magic river
#

iPad Pro and iPad Air are both USB-C

mighty storm
#

oh god i hated when they first switched to lightning

#

my ipad mini was the only device that had it

#

and i left the only charger at my aunt's house (which is like 15 hours from our house)

magic river
#

I wonder when they'll switch the iPhones over, maybe with the ones coming out next month?

mighty storm
#

so no ipad for me

magic river
#

If not I'd think next year's model

mighty storm
#

i suppose theyre waiting a month

#

I heard they had to delay some models

#

so maize well delay them all

magic river
#

Yeah they plan 4 iPhone 12 models but not all at once due to supply constraints

#

That's also why they weren't announced today

mighty storm
#

ye

magic river
#

iPhone, iPad, and Watch usually go together

next frost
#

I love their commitement to environmental aspects

magic river
#

It's unclear whether the 2 iPhone 12 versions will come first or the two 6.1" versions (12 and 12 Pro)

#

Rumor is 5.4" 12, 6.1" 12, 6.1" 12 Pro, and 6.7" 12 Pro

#

Both of the 12 would make sense if screens are the bottleneck

mighty storm
#

i wonder wy apple did live instead of premiere

void void
#

iphones with usb c pls

next frost
#

oh pls no large screens

magic river
#

Remember when Apple only put out one iPhone?

mighty storm
#

whas that

magic river
#

And when they moved to two models it was just a refresh of the two years ago model sold as new?

mighty storm
#

the se?

magic river
#

Yeah, first it was just iPhone, then you had iPhone and iPhone SE

#

Now you have 4 "flagship" models plus the SE

mighty storm
#

SE has iphone 11 specs though

@cosmic raft ELI5?

@slim nymph hyper-v will let Linux be the "native" OS

slim nymph
#

i get mixed thoughts reading this. is ms trying to run windows apps under linux natively?

mighty storm
#

anyone know when ios 14 actually releases?

magic river
#

hyper-v is like Xen so there is no actual native one but only one of them gets to use special APIs to have more direct hardware control

slim nymph
#

oh so linux hpervisor with windows guests? i assume windows requires a windows hypervisor atm?

mighty storm
#

oh tomorrow

#

nice

magic river
#

Instead of being Hyper-V with Windows on the side for management and whatever guests you want it'll be Hyper-V with Linux on the side for management and whatever guests you want

mighty storm
#

i assume beta 8 is the same lol

magic river
#

Hyper-V is an OS that sits under Windows

#

Now it can sit under Linux too

slim nymph
#

so the management part runs as a separate OS instance under the host?

magic river
#

Considering the host is actually Hyper-V then sure

cosmic raft
#

@slim nymph the second para explains really

#

Here we propose this patch series to make Linux run as the root partition [0]
on Microsoft Hypervisor [1].

Microsoft wants to create a complete virtualization stack with Linux and
Microsoft Hypervisor. There will be a subsequent patch series to provide a
device node (/dev/mshv) such that userspace programs can create and run virtual
machines. We've also ported Cloud Hypervisor [3] over and have been able to
boot a Linux guest with Virtio devices since late July.

slim nymph
#

only explains if you know how that stuff is built already, ive never dabbled with that stuff

magic river
#

Usually the host is considered that Windows instance though since it's the only way to drive Hyper-V and has sole authority on setting up hardware and guests

slim nymph
#

only done the simple VM style of some host os where guests are running essentially as processes on parent

magic river
#

This is basically like the Xen patches for Linux to let it run as the dom0 instead of just as a domU

mighty storm

nvm refreshed and it worked 😄

mighty storm

stylish had some sort of tracker thing, privacy issue

stylus is just css modification, nothin more

limber knotBOT

nah, the issue with stylish was that it contacted userstyles for all visited pages to show styles for your current page when you opened the menu

(DiscordBot) https://ubuntu.com/livepatch -- Canonical Livepatch Service | Ubuntu: "Automatic Linux kernel updates for Ubuntu 16.04, 18.04 and 20.04 LTS. Apply critical patches without rebooting and keep your systems secure and..."

spiral zinc
#

this doesn't actually do major updates, though, does it?

twin lagoon
#

just security

spiral zinc
#

there are limits to the amount of patching you can do

#

this is proven by the other live patching tool, that Oracle bought

golden gust
#

Not just security, depends what they drop out

#

But, it really depends on the scope of the change and the viability of it

#

e.g. the intel mitigations couldn't be live-patched

spiral zinc
#

you can really only do very minor patches

#

think about it

#

you can't change everything that is in memory to have a different shape

#

not reasonably

#

so at best you can poke some instructions or some branches to be slightly different

#

moreover it kind of doesn't matter, let your systems fail

#

if they can't be turned off and have others take their place automatically, you're doing something wrong

limber knotBOT
#

glances at his old server with over 1200 days uptime

spiral zinc
#

if you want to skip the reboot you can

#

load the new kernel into kexec and then shutdown into it

#

at least the hardware will remain hot

golden gust
#

The thing is that for servers, most of what you'd care about can probably be live patched

#

mainly stability/security fixes

#

The mechanism to do it is pretty robust

#

Just, ofc, there is a scope to it's viablity where the scale of the patch is just going to cause so many issues applying on a hot system that it's not worth it

spiral zinc
#

yeah I mean at the end of the day you'll still need to do hard upgrades

#

that's about it

#

since you already can shut off the machines because of that

#

you should be able to apply upgrades without live patching as well

golden gust
#

upgrading existing hardware is generally not worth it to companies where this is really relevant, tbqh

#

maybe I misread that, erm

#

The thing is that the idea is to try to avoid reboots as much as possible, imagine if everything needed to reboot due to shellshock, etc

mighty storm
#

dammit, i have essay due tomorrow

#

should i wait and do it tomorrow or should i just do it tonight

golden gust
#

create a title page

potent fossil
#

do a mindmap tonight

golden gust
#

that way you can say you did something today

spiral zinc
#

The thing is that the idea is to try to avoid reboots as much as possible, imagine if everything needed to reboot due to shellshock, etc
@golden gust shellshock isn't a kernel exploit and I can imagine that

potent fossil
#

then itll be really easy tmrw to write it quickly

golden gust
#

No, but the point still stands

spiral zinc
#

I would be happy to reboot my entire fleet

#

oh does it

golden gust
#

For large companies, rebooting the entire network in a "oh shit" manner ain't exactly viable

spiral zinc
#

you generally have to be a few layers deep to have to attack the kernel anyway

golden gust
#

Not to mention, that one machine on the network which people refuse to reboot because oh fuck

(ask simple about that one 😄 )

Just so I know where to start looking - is anyone having issues where sleeping doesn't reset a player's phantoms on the latest 1.16.3 build / is it a known bug already?

heady spear
#

simple did you see me flash my pretty brig stuff before?

#

tell me I'm good

#

I need the confidence boost or I'll cry myself to sleep

golden gust
#

it won't kill the existing phantoms

#

(Server doesn't even track the player which spawned them, etc)

astral spoke
#

I know, that's not what I mean

golden gust
#

It should reset the sleep timer thing, however; not aware of that not working

astral spoke
#

I mean when someone sleeps phantoms are supposed to stop spawning at night for them for a while

#

Alright then, I'll do some testing

heady spear

it's still quite hacky ngl

grand pewter
#

i tried with commodore before but it had weird bugs

golden gust
#

define "hacky"

grand pewter
#

sometimes didn't register a random command

heady spear
#

Most of the argument types aren't exposed by the API so you need to use NMS to access them

golden gust

ah

so if you want serialisation of all mojang mapped types then well

it'll be a bit hacky

though I think NVIDIA's purchase of Arm is going to go downhill
@peak dirge IMHO it's fine

#

if it really becomes a problem, everyone will use RISC-V and gang up on Nvidia

#

and I don't really think it'll be a problem as long as nvidia is forced to respect ARM's licensing arrangements going forward

#

I think nvidia has been wanting to join AMD/Intel in the CPU battleground for years

#

but getting the bus licenses to make nForce was a major battle with Intel, so making ARM chips is the only way they can even get into the market

So rewrite Aether Engine in Java?

peak dirge

or using JNI

magic river
#

No more modding anyway then 😛

#

At least not for anything Aether Engine manages

#

It looks like this is basically a port of Minecraft to a new engine

#

Not a new renderer but Aether Engine probably manages physics and networking and such

The new MC modding will be all about changing the data send to Aether Engine. I'm expecting an in-depth protocol explanation after that has been reverse engineerd :)

How bad would it be if I made an unprivileged account on my server (i.e. no sudo) with the docker group so that Jenkins can log in and execute image pulls and container restarts? Ssh key auth only

i mean, my jenkins runs on root

#

so you'd probably be fine

magic river
#

So Java is also doing Lua scripting

worn ember
#

ah yes thats what we needed

magic river
#

That's how "real" games are made 😛

worn ember
#

slap lua ontop of it

#

i mean, ur not wrong

magic river
#

Engine in some high perf language, assets in data, game logic in lua

worn ember
#

well usually they do that cuz the engine is in c or c++

#

seems kinda pointless if its already in java

magic river
#

Game logic as in "how an arrow launches depending on where you're looking, how long you pull back, etc"

#

The actual flight of the arrow is the physics engine in that high perf language

#

Well, it doesn't matter what the engine is written in if you don't need to mess with it

worn ember
#

its just yet another layer ontop tho

spiral sparrow
#

Amaranth was an ubuntu dev 😮

worn ember
#

that must be why its so unstable

wide chasm
#

Still don't quite get why people do the whole Lua thing; you've already worked with probably C++ or C# for your engine, might as well write the game logic in that as well. It's not like those languages are particularly hard or anything.

worn ember
#

lua is easier to learn i suppose

spiral zinc

How bad would it be if I made an unprivileged account on my server (i.e. no sudo) with the docker group so that Jenkins can log in and execute image pulls and container restarts? Ssh key auth only
@potent fossil you'll be fine as long as you keep your private key away from randoms

potent fossil
#

lol, yeah of course

wide chasm
#

I guess if you have separate people working on the engine and the game logic, yeah. If those are tge same people, well, those would already know the language of the engine.

worn ember
#

not much you can do from jenkins anyway

#

unless you're logged in to an admin account ofc

potent fossil
#

jenkins would be logging in via ssh to run some commands and then log out

worn ember
#

oh uh

spiral zinc
#

I don't see any issue with that

potent fossil
#

should be fine, the private key is separate and secure

olive marlin
#

I mean - with that you basically have root access.

potent fossil
#

it doesnt have sudo access

olive marlin
#

But with docker you can elevate priviledges.

#

Since you contact daemon which has root access.

potent fossil
#

welp, dunno the other option and im not running a full k8s cluster

If you have a decent ssh config, it should be fine.

I'm trying to describe what the default implementation does without using the code itself. That's what I currently have: The
* default implementation invokes {@link #evaluate(int, Object)} with the
* specified parameters and forwards the parameters and the result to
* {@link #evaluateGradient(int, Object, double)}.
But that sounds stupid ..

That's almost currying but no

#

Oh, whoops, I did the thing the wiki points out and mixed it up with partial function application

pulsar wigeon
#

honestly sounds like a way wordier version of "The default implementation calls the {link int,obj,double} overload with the result of the {link evaluate} method as the third param"

#

it's implied that the first two params are the same since it's an overload

pastel pivot
#

okay thanks, sounds better.

#

so assuming one would write a wiki that contains information about multiple plugins: would you guys prefer all the information about one plugin to be on a single page (commands, permissions, examples etc. kinda like wikipedia does it) or have sub pages for that stuff?

pulsar wigeon
#

monolithic pages are ugly

#

unless they're all relatively small, separate

worn ember
#

i'd make a category for one, then sub categories for all documentation

#

if that makes any sense, words are hard

#

Still don't quite get why people do the whole Lua thing; you've already worked with probably C++ or C# for your engine, might as well write the game logic in that as well. It's not like those languages are particularly hard or anything.

#

another reason is accessibility

#

its a lot easier to just slap something together in lua than it is to get a full IDE set up

limber knotBOT
#

using any language without an IDE is a pain though

mighty storm
#

this but with that "woah oh oh oh" theme

pastel pivot
#

I think that's what I'm going to use. I know the second sentence is kind of redundant and unnecessary but it's very clear now.

     * {@link #evaluateGradient(int, Object, double)} with
     * {@link #evaluate(int, Object)} as third parameter. Otherwise the same
     * parameters are used for both methods.```
#

Thanks again for helping me out.

@wide chasm its much faster to test changes in Lua code than recompiling game, as well as if you intend to have a user facing api Lua is a natural choice

wide chasm
#

Why Lua out of all languages though? Last time I looked at Lua it didn't seem that great.

slim nymph
#

It has a really close binding to c/c++

magic river
#

Lua is one of the languages best suited for scripting an existing piece of software

#

It has no standard library and can only do things you explicitly provide to it

#

I mean, it has a standard library but by default it's not available

slim nymph
#

Easy to bind native code into the environment with low overhead

magic river
#

So you can restrict IO and such by just not enabling that

#

I don't know if I'd say low overhead but lower than a JNI call certainly 😛

wide chasm
#

I see, that would make sense in such an environment I suppose.

#

Doesn't sound very good for a normal standalone programming language, though

slim nymph
#

i sure as hell have not heard of any other major language being as easy to even tie into. i think someones trying for nodejs but not heard anything solid. never heard of it for php or python either.

#

its one thing to add native modules to a language, its another to run a language i a foreign process it doesnt control and let that environment control you

#

the language has to be loaded as a library instead of the controlling process, and expose apis to let a controller tell the interpeter how to behave

#

the simple fact lua has that work done saves game developers a ton of time not redoing that work for another language, so lua commonly gets used

vestal jasper
#

WoW uses Lua for it's addons as well

#

And ComputerCraft uses it for it's user operating environment

limber knotBOT
#

yeah, it fucking sucks lol. I wish they used a proper language

vestal jasper
#

I have used it standalone but yeah there's 0 reason to, might as well use nosejs or python, you'll have an infinitely better experience.

limber knotBOT
#

anything that is not zero-indexed is not a real programming language

vestal jasper
#

CC Lua is alright. It's what got me into programming tbh since it's pretty much as easy to use as basic.

@young tendon ur welcome

it finally rained here yesterday

mighty storm

nice

zealous wedge

we can see the real sky!

cosmic raft

@>sky

#

what is a sky

mighty storm
#

cant get offline player by username anymore?

zealous wedge
#

probably does network lookups

#

bukkit is bad

worn ember
#

hasnt it been deprecated for ages now?

mighty storm
#

probably, he never removes deprecated methods

zealous wedge
#

there's an actual profile api

worn ember
#

by the time its removed spigot wont exist anymore

zealous wedge
#

you think spigot can die?

worn ember
#

slow and painful death

mighty storm
#

and the getShoulderEntity methods are all deprecated too

cosmic raft
vestal jasper

Same kash

zealous wedge

nice superstore

cosmic raft

thanks

worn ember

its ok, it'll get colder KEKW

limber knotBOT
#

"anymore" chew?

zealous wedge
#

that's what it looked like yesterday here

limber knotBOT
#

that has been there since the UUID update lmao

#

Bukkit team deprecated all player-name methods iirc

zealous wedge
#

we can't see downtown, but at least we can see up

cosmic raft
#

yea phoenix

#

anyone using names for anything but displaying in chat is bad

zealous wedge
#

yeah, should've been replaced by an actual api around the profile cache with async operations and all that

#

but it wasn't

limber knotBOT
#

"how to get command input?" thonk

worn ember
#

Yes

mighty storm
#

i mean, whats the easiest way to find an offlineplayer via username

slim nymph
#

um names are used for commands too kash 😛

worn ember
#

i know my own uuid out of my head

mighty storm
#

yeah talkin /bruh moment, what if moment is offline

zealous wedge
#

there is a cache locally

#

i think paper somewhat exposes it?

limber knotBOT
#

don't use getOfflinePlayer, use the PlayerProfile or the cache directly

worn ember
#

cache me outside how about dah

slim nymph
#

well offline support sucks, it can really kill performance, better off using external db

cosmic raft
#

commands count as chat aikar

#

lol

limber knotBOT
#

at least there you have actual control over what happens, getOfflinePlayer will just call straight to mojang if its not cached

slim nymph
#

but i do want to add a sqlite db in front of name based lookups

worn ember
#

just use mc-heads

mighty storm
slim nymph
#

just cause mc is weird and sends commands and chat in same packet doesnt mean its same! 😛

limber knotBOT
#

yeah, I actually run a mongo cache of username->uuid mapping lol

worn ember
#

thats illegal chew

no it doesn't, at least not in 8

i just copied it from geyser lol

oohh much better

#

What did you copy from Geyser?

mighty storm
#

the jenkins pipeline file

#

i gave up with it though, still too hard

restive thicket
#

Nice.

#

Yeah, I don't really get it either.

potent fossil
#

There, got mine working

mighty storm
#

why do you always show up when i say geyser

#

or, well, how

potent fossil
#

That's horrible. Good thing my pipelines are p much the same for everything now

#

ill be copy pasting that one

mighty storm
#

anyway should probably work on my essay, ugh

this comment section is now property of the german republic kekw

Just coincidence that I show up mostly.

#

I lurk.

mighty storm
#

who was that PM before boris

#

i forgot her name

slim nymph
#

lies, you got a bot pinging for geyser

potent fossil
#

ok now how do i erase all the failed builds in jenkins cuz that shit is embarassing

mighty storm
#

delete builds, set next build number to the last successful + 1

slim nymph
#

thats part of every change to a CI workflows history

#

dont hide normality

potent fossil
#

well anyway, yea, for most of my projects that pipeline is copypastable save for changing the repo URL and whatever. so pretty nice, ill make my other projects now :D

oh shit i never tested git webhook reeeee

As long as you don't break builds on production branches it's just part of the fun of development

We have three production branches

it's a lot of faff

we use our 1.9 network as a base for most stuff, backport to 1.8 where relevant and then forwardport to MCO when it's needed
